Sometimes I just don't know what I want to make for dinner.  I love to cook, but especially when my wife is out of town for extended periods of time (she has been gone since last Wednesday at this point) and I know the kids would be just as happy with Hot Pockets or McDonalds as they are with anything fancy I decide to make for dinner it is difficult to find inspiration.  It is times like this that have brought me to an interesting realization.  No matter what mood I am in, if I can't decide what to make for dinner beef stew or corned beef hash always work and never disappoint.  Really.  A big bowl of a thick beef stew made from scratch and cooked the right way for hours in the oven with a good whole wheat roll is NEVER the wrong answer.
